"Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just like people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride."

~ Gordon B. Hinckley

How this BLOG came to be...

Our blog was initially created to update our friends and family on the renovation of our first home. Now that our home is complete and we have a baby on the way- its morphed into something else... a conglomeration of all things Pregnancy, Baby, DIY crafty projects, Lady GaGa, Grey's Anatomy, Twilight Saga, and Random Randomness.

I, Christy, update the blog... so, usually it's more about the things I find interesting or humorous.

Patrick did GOOD this year... In the past, Christmas's haven't been so great. My husband is absolutely handicapped when it comes to buying me gifts. Well, this year I guess he thought he better go big or go home. P.S. this is my Birthday, Anniversary, and Christmas gift for 2008!

Behold!

-I'm in LOVE-

I know my friends are glad they won't get the ChristyCryin' Phone Call Tomorrow...

Christmas turned out to be really nice. Patrick had to work at the Fire Department- I hung out with him at the FD and we watched T.V. --- and then he took off a little while this evening for us to enjoy a Romantic Christmas Dinner at the Waffle House. :)

I got Patrick a really nice watch... but we are going to return it for one that has a digital stop watch on it- because he needs that for work. AND- we are going to Montgomery tomorrow to get his iPhone. First thing tomorrow morning- I am headed to The Pineapple downtown to get a Purse with the Gift Card Eddie and John got me for Christmas!

EVERYTHING in the store is 50 percent off--- I hope they still have that Purse!
